Suwanee, Georgia

Suwanee, Georgia was named for a Shawnee Indian tribe that settled in the area in the latter part of the 18th century. Until recently, Suwanee was a small agricultural town with strong ties to the railroad. And just as the railroads brought growth in the late 1800s, so has Suwanee’s convenient access to Atlanta fueled growth over the past 20 years.

Suwanee was one of the fastest-growing cities in Georgia throughout the 1990s and is today home to about 15,000 residents. Suwanee, GA has worked hard to retain its charm and sense of neighborliness. The City has recently used voter-approved bond funds to preserve open space and create new parks.

In addition, Suwanee is committed to preserving and enhancing its historic area, providing outstanding services to citizens and businesses, and fostering a true sense of community. Not only is Suwanee an excellent place to live, work, and play, it’s a great place to call home.
